...apparently the US government can now find wanted criminals?


Though being that it's whitey bulger, odds are he "turned himself in" in an FBI involved way.

Really great that we could find an 81 year old man who obviously still posses a huge threat to the nation.

im up in the air about this..

on one hand you have one of the nations most notorious criminals that killed 19 people and worked with our government to continue his activities

on the other hand the gov't has spent over a decade and a half and who knows how many millions of dollars of my tax money to capture an 81 year old man in apparently very poor health...only to spend more money on him with trials and trying to keep him alive

hmmm

Do you know anything about whom he killed himself and others he ordered to have killed? You're insinuating that everyone he had a part in the death of was a crooked individual. That's not true. There were a few innocent people (that is known) that were killed by Whitey or his gang. Innocent bystanders, gf's...

"The arrest is a long-sought victory for the FBI"

Haha, 16 years and they call this a victory? He didn't resist at all. That's like Americans being all like "fuck yea we stomped you Bin Laden!!1!1!"

...when he out-played the USA for like 10 years.

They got to him by putting out a media campaign about his GF on shows like "The View" and other things that 50 year old women like. Someone identified the GF I guess.

Yeah I do i read the book by kevin weeks which was pretty amazing because of some of the descriptions of events that took place with him and whitey

I didnt mean to say that all the people he killed got what was comign to them..but a lot of his murders involved people who were not good people - yes i do know about flemmi's gf that he raped and killed and assorted other killings, but what i was trying to say is most of the people he had a hand in killing were scum

it's not like he's gonna be running around and robbing and shooting people. he's the head of a mob. he doesn't have to be active. he's in charge of money and who dies. so yea, it is great that we found this man who has been involved in 19 murders. i bet those families are feeling much better now that he's going to be brought to justice.

on his most wanted page it said how he frequents local libraries and likes historical shit. well there was this guy that used to come into our small town library once a week and say he just moved but never say his name. he looked exactly like whitey bulger and would come in with a woman that looked like his wife then one week he just stopped coming. thought i had him for a minute
